Title:
  macbook keyboard layout maps the tilde key to something else

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  1. install ubuntu on Macbook Air 6,2
  2. press the key with the tilde ('~') written on it.
  3. see that is prints '§' instead.

  This is particularly annoying since the way to switch between windows uses the tilde.
